We have unpaid interns to hold each slab on display. Since light is bad for comics, they mostly sit in the dark. Come to think of it, there's probably no good reason we make them hold the slabs above their heads.

I liked this episode. Little Finger is trying to turn Arya against Sansa and it appears to be working. We need to see him and Euron every episode to keep the chaos rolling.

It was also a fun one re: advancing multiple plotlines forward. I wonder if the Hound is the one who brings the undead or white-walker specimen to King's Landing? Maybe then he can kill off the Mountain?

John with Drogon was a great scene as well. Does this mean that he will be mounting a dragon for the battle with the Night King at some point?

No doubt that Jon will 'mount the dragon' at some point...if you catch my drift.

Spoiler

I read that Jon is actually a Targaryen & not the son of Eddard but his sister Lyanna that died in the flashback Bran had last season. Eddard promised Lyanna that he would protect Jon from Robert (her 1st husband) by hiding his identity.

Gilly reading from a book in episode 5 this season mentions an annulment for a “Prince Raggar,” who married a second wife in a secret ceremony in Dorne. Neither Sam nor Gilly understood the significance of this.

What this (very likely) means is that Daenerys’s brother, Rhaegar, annulled his marriage to his first cousin/wife Elia Martell in order to marry Jon Snow’s mother, Lyanna Stark. Jon is not a at all but, rather a legitimate Targaryen air to the Iron Throne.

So with the revelation that Jon is actually Daenerys's nephew, I don't know if they will get together at all.

Jon is definitely mounting a Dragon though & the prophecy that 3 Targaryen's would ride dragon's leads me to believe that the night king was a Targaryen as well. The ice dragon will make it 3 dragons for 3 Targaryen's, thus fulfilling the prophecy.

So, is this thread just going to outright carry the leaks and spoilers from the show then?

We've got some people sort of hiding details but then others responding without hiding them...we've also got others just outright posting what's happening.

Just want to know so I can try to not have all my enjoyment destroyed on the boards the way they were in the Walking Dead and other TV and movie threads in the past.

I'm going to avoid it altogether. It's just rude that people who can't figure out spoilers are posting spoilers and other people are reacting in ways that make spoilers pretty obvious. It's not even a spoiler because someone hasn't yet watched an ep that aired. You're all watching a pirated episode (morally questionable to begin with) and then choosing to post spoilers ahead of the legitimate airing and others posting stupid pseudo-spoilers ahead of the scheduled airing time.

Regardless, you at least tried to hide what happened in the episode, not like some numpty a couple pages back who just blurted it out like a total anus.

Indeed, not cool for those that are waiting it out. I have a friend of mine that will only watch the episode on Sunday. I will watch it again on Monday ( as it airs here on Monday ) as as we have traditionally done since the start of the show comment on the episode on Tuesday.

I didn't realize being later in the chain of viewers it became legal to copy and pass on copies of the show.

Yeah. Show of hands for those who've already watched the episode, but they did so because they happened to legitimately stream from HBO Nordic or HBO Espana during the 1 hour window when it was erroneously available. No? No takers? I'll wait a second. No? Still none?

You told me there's a big reveal regarding the white walkers next episode (and that was a very minor reveal compared to the others). NOW I SHALL SPEND THE ENTIRE EPISODE LOOKING FOR THE REVEAL YOU SPOILED!

Actually, I won't, but the other reveals were worse. Luckily I'm good at intentionally forgetting things and have already forgotten them, but when the episode reminds me, I shall go "meh" instead of whatever reaction I would have had had those details not been revealed.
